Gambling in South SudanSouth Sudan is one of the poorest countries in the world, and was engaged in a brutal civil war from December 2013 to August 2015. There is almost no information on gambling laws in South Sudan. The country gained its independence just five years ago, making it likely that they have not established their own set of laws regarding gambling.
